      ]. This review is part of the European Union's Horizon 2020 research project Smart Bone Regeneration (SBR) which aims to improve treatment options for patients with large bone defects (https://www.smart-bone-regeneration.eu/). Current literature supports the observation that personalized 3D-printed biodegradable implants may offer great opportunities for treatment of critical-size long bone defects [
